L.A is Projected to Add a lot of Low-Paying Jobs Through 2020
On Wednesday, the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation reported that hundreds of thousands of low-wage jobs would be added in the area over the next four years. Food service workers and office administrators are estimated to account for approximately 93,000 of the jobs added. Economists have voiced complaints that they would much rather see job growth in high-wage sectors. Los Angeles county has already added 469,200 jobs since 2010, and another 346,000 jobs are anticipated to be added between now and 2020.
